Why does Fiora have a French accent..

  • ...while J4, Garen, and everyone else from Demacia doesn't? Why is Cait British and Jayce and Vi sound distinctly American? Explain that in the Lore, Riot.

    Cool a red post.

    Lol GD downvotes for pointing something out.

    Why do people in the American South have different accents from those in the American North East?

    Why do people in London have different accents from those outside the city?

    Good try though!
    While each of the characters he listed share a common allegiance to one city state, the characters listed do not share the exact same backgrounds, social class, family histories, and origins. It would be incredibly boring to assume that everyone from Demacia (or any other city state) is simply a copy of each other.

    From a readability perspective, choosing accents we're familiar with lets us easily and quickly understand the nature of the character we're playing thanks to our pre-conceived biases and cultural experiences.
